This record, recorded in April 2014, includes four classic Snarky Puppy highlights recorded over two sold-out nights at Manchester's famous venue Band on the Wall. In this, their third trip to Europe, the band established themselves as a force to be reckoned with. This recording is notable for the fact that the show started with a lone drum groove and developed from there -- the audience reaction tells the story. These two special evenings are hallmarks of where Snarky Puppy stands today: the music, musicians and audience came together in one incredible moment.
GroundUP Music and Snarky Puppy felt this recording was important to be shared. Snarky Puppy at their most playful and interacting with the fans at a very intimate level. Newer fans of the band will find this snapshot of that time, ten years ago, inspiring while older fans will have their memories triggered to the start of their journey with the band and their incredible music.
